Donor Advised Funds

Donor Advised Funds are the fastest-growing giving method and tax-efficient way to manage charitable donations. Donor Advised Funds allow donors to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from the fund over time. 

Grants made to Hearth through Donor Advised Funds can be designated for Hearth to use “Where it’s needed most” or aligned with areas that match our supporters’ interest, such as outreach, capital campaigns or home goods for newly housed clients.

Clients of Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, and BNY Mellon can easily make a designation through the DAF Direct window on this page.

Hearth’s tax I.D. number is 04-3206820
